    80+ years of them. And those are just the main ones. I still left out a few

    It is if you flat out refuse to add certain things, which you are.

    Ray, Wth? You're not making sense. Stop. This is Bored's timeline. You can suggest, but you don't get to demand, and if you want to create your own then write it yourself, either from scratch or using Bored's as a template, but don't order Bored to edit theirs.

    It’s really no trouble at all to just discuss something. It’s called an oral history.

    He’s getting defensive for no reason, and you’re not doing much better.
    I’m not demanding anything, but him shooting me down at every turn isn’t conversational or respectful.
    I don't think you quite understand how you are coming off here.

    I am asking for feedback from fellow fans in order to make improvements. We are not co-authors. If anyone makes a suggestion that I think will make it better, I will incorporate it, as I did with your suggestion about including more Batman villains (I also added more Wonder Woman villains too BTW)

    That said, it's still my DCU History. As I have said multiple times now, you are free to use my work as a template to create your own history that includes whatever you want to include or omit. I don’t own any of the images I have used and I have no problem with anyone using any of the text I have written. This was all created for the purposes of giving my ESL students an overview of DCU history that incorporates more than the ever fickle in-continuity stuff that often ignores the cooler stories.

    You can do whatever you want with it, but I am under no obligation to make those changes for you.

    Are we clear?

    Good choices either way.

    Any plans for other Superman locations like Smallville or Metropolis? Or other DC locations like Oa, Gotham, Themyscira, etc?

    No, you don’t understand how you’re coming off. You’re being overly territorial and making things up. You’re misunderstanding me and still talking like what you think was said was actually said. You speak as though you’re looking for criticism, but it’s obvious you’re not open to it and you’re bad at taking it.

    If you want to have a conversation about it we can certainly do that, but your approach needs to change.

    Dude, ultimately this is Bored's project. If you want something different you can absolutely make your own.

    I mean, I follow after Overstreet and break out 1985-1991 as a separate Copper Age, but if he wants to lump it into a "Dark Age" for his project I'm not going to get pissy about it.

    At this point it’s not even about that. His responses have been unacceptable and it isn’t the way to go about getting your point across.

    If you feel that way, you can simply stop posting here. Or, again, start your own DCU history that can be anything you want it to be.

    I am sorry if you feel offended, but you are person acting inappropriately here. Irregardless, I am done trying to reason with you. Good-bye.

    Smallville, Metropolis, Gotham and Themyscira are introduced in the pre-1938 section and there's pictures of each of them. I don't go into too much detail about either location though. Is there anything specific you think I should mention? Thanks for taking the time to go through it.

    I am curious, what happens in 1991 that ends the Copper Age?

    You probably know more about some of them than I do, so can't really think of anything.

    That’s 100% a lie, and I think you know that. Thank you for apologizing.
